Comment on Tesla FSD turns off more U.S. consumers than it attracts, survey finds
brygphilomena@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 weeks agoThat’s… Still terrible, you see that, right? Disabling a feature that I’ve paid for for any reason, at all, is unacceptable.
The parenting behavior of big tech companies is insulting.

In concept, as a partly libertarian, I agree, they should sell the hardware and what I do with it is my business and if I misuse it and get in an accident that is my fault not theirs.
In practice, most people don’t see it that way unfortunately. There’s an awful lot of people who already misuse autopilot, even going back to the early days of autopilot. And every time someone gets in a crash in a Tesla, the question becomes did autopilot kill them and can we blame Tesla for the crash.
Personally I wish more people took the absolute view, namely that it’s supervised autopilot so either the human did something stupid or the computer did something stupid while the human was supposed to be watching it and either way it’s the human’s fault. Unfortunately this is not the world we live in :(
Point being, I would complain more about the parenting behavior of society at large than the parenting behavior of big tech.
